Overview

The Slovenian Daoist Temple of Supreme Harmony was founded in Koper in 2018 by Jure Čeh (Daoist name Yuan Weiqi), and is one of the few Daoist organizations in Europe with a physical temple; its name derives from the Daoist Temple of Supreme Harmony in Caserta, Italy, reflecting the transmission of ritual lineage and naming across the European Daoist network. The temple engages in scripture study, ritual practice, and the cultivation of internal alchemy, and takes part in the activities of the Europe Taoist Federation. The directory of 'Daoist temples and communities in Europe' published on the temple's official website is currently the most complete list of European Daoist organizations available, covering groups in Italy, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Switzerland, Portugal, Belgium, Germany, Slovenia, Russia, Belarus, Austria, and Liechtenstein, and is an important self-documented source for the study of Daoism's spread in Europe. No independently reliable public source gives the temple's specific address, coordinates, or registration details.
